Since most enthusiasts are looking for ways to extract more performance out of their video cards/cpus etc; i am posting a compilation of alternate drivers for Nvidia and Ati users. I hope you find them useful.
Alternate Drivers for ATi Catalysts !

Omega Drivers: The purpose of the Omega Drivers is to provide gamers with an alternate set of drivers, ones that have more options and features than the original sets. The drivers contain optimizations, extra features (like OC capabilities), more resolutions and internal tweaks that can give them the edge in a gaming environment over the normal drivers, which are often tailored for synthetic benchmarks. All Omega driver sets are tested (unless noted) by myself in my own PC or in an alternate PC (in the case of the Nvidia drivers) to ensure maximum compatibility and reliability.

DNA Drivers: These are modified Catalyst drivers for Windows 2000 & XP. Modified drivers simply means that the author takes official or beta drivers from the manufacturer and starts to tweak them for either better image quality and or performance. Please bare in mind that the driver manufacturer, in this case ATI, does not support drivers like these.

Besides the WHQL certified drivers by nvidia, the omegas do a good job @ maintaining image quality with performance. The new Extreme G drivers are known to have gr8 performance improvemenst thought i havent tried them personally.

@Aces: Omega hasnt stopped updating his drivers, he will continue to do it. Read this thread for more info http://www.techenclave.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1464

@Satan: Use Omegas since u have a 9800pro now. Ati drivers by omegas rock in gaming but arent good enuf for benchies. The Cats and DNAs are better for that.
@Others: thnks guys ! :)
